Default Rangers tempt the sim

The Rangers have decided to make their deals well ahead of the trade deadline in an effort to get into the playoffs but at the same time this could totally backfire because the sim can be a b!tch.

Trade 1:
To NY:
Claude Giroux
Cap

To CBJ:
2017 first
Olli Maatta
2017 3rd

Trade 2:
To NY:
Marian Gaborik
Cap

To Dallas:
Sven Baertschi
Richard Panik

Thanks to both GMs for the easy trade talks.

Aggressive moves. You acquire some great talent and your top 6 looks a little something like:

Nyquist - Giroux - Stone
Gaborik - Couture - Little

Those are all pretty interchangeable between your 1st and 2nd line and your top 6 looks fierce.
You're gambling, and gave up some nice pieces, but I like the moves a lot.
Giroux is an absolute stud in the SIM and, although we're happy with Backstrom, I've always regretting moving him. Excited to see what he does with the Rangers.

Like the Giroux move. Sim beast!

Also happy with my return on a rental.
